### Base Program

- **Enhanced ECON\CQM report readability:** Adjusted the `ECON\CQM` report to correctly display remarks wider than 10 characters.
- **Reliable CowCard lactation history:** Resolved an issue where using the `EC=18` command versus the `XID` command broke the link between an animal's current and previous lactation.
- **Enhanced Test Day data visibility:&#x20;**&#x44;airyComp now supports two new measurements—Combined Fat and Protein (**TCOMP**) and Energy Corrected Milk (**ECM**)—providing deeper insights into animal production directly from the CowCard.
  - **Customizable CowCard views:** These values can now be added as columns in the Test Days tab of the CowCard via the [ALTER 10](docId\:MX-W0_rojbf_tkitdbPql) configuration.
  - **Advanced graphing and analysis:** You can now select **TCOMP** and **ECM** as variables in the `PLOT` command to visualize and analyze production trends more effectively.
- **July 2026 NAAB proof updates:** DairyComp now includes the latest July 2026 NAAB proof data for the US, UK, Germany, and Canada.
